Dear Friends of Heart 2 Hart Detroit,

As 2022 comes to a close, Heart 2 Hart Detroit takes pride in the long-lasting relationships we have developed with those we serve. Lee has been a friend of H2HD for seven years. When we first met Lee, he was a homeless teacher working at a charter school in Detroit. Today, he is still teaching and is now renting a room in a house. In May of 2022, Lee suffered a heart attack and was forced to take time off work. Our organization was able to provide assistance with his rent, phone bill, and also deliver healthy food to his home.

Here is what Lee had to say about his relationship with our organization:

“Heart 2 Hart Detroit has been a lifeline and lifesaver for me in the new millennium. After my heart attack, H2HD jumped in with assistance, and relieved so much stress which helped me strengthen. I am now working part-time under restrictions, but this would not be possible without the help from H2HD. I am eternally grateful as well as ready to help when I am able or asked to do so.”

This is simply one example of the impact our organization has had on those in need. This holiday season we once again ask that you consider Heart 2 Hart Detroit for your charitable giving. Any support you can provide is greatly appreciated, and will be put to immediate use to provide clothing, hygiene items, bus tickets, sleeping bags, tents, and most importantly, hope to hundreds of people who are struggling and in need.

Over this last year, your donations have helped provide:

• 13,200 healthy lunches

• 5,200 pairs of socks

• 1,200 pairs of underwear

• 7,300 hygiene items

• 2,100 t-shirts

• 2,200 bus passes

From all of us at Heart 2 Hart Detroit, thank you for your continued support.
